Pretoria's best kept secret! Best maintained and safe park in Pretoria! Loads of families gather every week end. Dog friendly! Beautiful man made river and massive koi pond. Beautiful for photographers and safer than most parks. Be mindful of your valuables and remember that you are still in a residential area so no radio's or noise after 22h00.
